Default Take 5 on 441

I was shocked at the great service I got at the "Take 5" oil change place north of the Walmart on west side of 441.

I pulled right in, with no appointment, rolled down my window, and a guy handed me a cold bottle of water and there was a fan blowing in the window while he took my info, and then they changed my oil, all while I sat in the car. Afterwards, they topped off all the fluids and checked the filters. When they were done, they had a guy calling off items on a check list, to make sure everything was secure before they closed the hood. They were very professional and serious about doing a great job. I didn't think to time it, but I doubt I was there 10 minutes.

It was about $50 for the "economy" oil change, which is outrageous, but still less than most places, and about the same as my last WalMart oil change (where they made me wait 45 minutes, and then broke the hood release handle for the 2nd time).
